the absolute necessity Of two modern steam

Perhaps" says the report. there In no de-
velopment OF the modern ships quite equal to
the new high powered machines to give them
speed, and unless ws can include the training
OF firemen for thess hish-powered ships. It
would not DO overstated TO say that until the
men arc trained to convert the greatest
amount OF coal into energy on givcn crate
surface. these new ships ct the outset Of their
cruises must lose much OF their effectiveness

TALES OF THE PYeMIEs.

Ancient and Modern Reports Dwarfish
Tribes-Scientist's Views.
A. De Quatrefages has recently pub
lished an historical review of the ancient
and modern reports on dwarfish tribes.
While formerly the descriptions of ancient
geographers were considered not trust
worthy, many of them have been con-
firmed by recent explorations. Among
these are the tales of the pygnies. Aris-
totle and Pliny state that a dwarfsh peo-
pie lived near the swamps of the upper
part of the Nile. De Quatrefages con-
siders this tribe identical with Schwein-
furth's Aka, who at the present time
live a little further south. Pomponius
Mela mentions dwarfs who inhabited the
neighborhood of the Red sea. This re-
port was confirmed by Leon des AVIAN
cher's discovery of the dwarfish Wa
Berikomo, who are said to be only four
and one-half feet high. and by D'Abba-
dies visit to the Maze Mollea, who live
little further to the north

SHOOTING A sHARpsHooTER.

How the Coniederates Got Rid of a Danger
GUS Foeman at the Siege of Petersburg.
At points around Petersburg, where
the lines of earthworks were only pistol
shot apart, the sharpshooter piled his
murderous rifle night and day, and they
became living terror to both sides. /
was for two weeks in the Confederate
works, opposite Grants Fort Hell, and
although tons upon tons of Federal shot
and shell were hurled at us, we lost more
men by the bullets of the sharpshooters
than by all the cannonading. In the
Confederate works, just above the fort
which Butler blew up and which has since
been known as the Crater, the most effec-
| tive cannon was silenced for two days by
Federal sharpshooter who ensconced
himself only stones throw away. lido not
know that the one man held the place for
] two nights and two days, but we judged
so from the style of firing, and because
when we were finally rid of him no one
else took his place. He crept out from
the Federal line in dark and rainy night,
dug a rifle pit, banked up the dirt around
| it, and killed two of our men between
daylight and sunrise. He had a sixteen
shooter rifle, and he gave all his attention
to one embrasure in the fort and before
noon the piece of artillery at that en-
brasure was silenced.
A round dozen Confederate sharp
shooters were detailed to kill the fellow
off, but he would not be killed. The dirt
was knocked about his ears in perfect
clouds by bullets, and now and then a
piece of filled artillery sent a shell plow-
ing along over him; but he was there to
stay. When night came we intended to
creep out and kin or make him prison
er, but loi a whole company was brought
up and stationed in the ravine just be-
hind him, where their fire would sweep
the field around his pit, and we had to
turn to some other plan. He was there
in the morning, and he killed one man
and wounded second before O'Clock.
Three pieces of light artillery played on
his pit until the guns had fired dozen
shells each. but he was unframed. 1t
was plain that he had dug his pit SO deep
and narrow that everything from our side
must pass over it, and it was certain that
: we must try some other plan. Had he
been without close support three or four
men could have solved the. problem

THE STORM BEATS DOWN.

The storm beats down, and the wind and rain
Moan and drive at the window pane.
I sit within by the ruddy fire,
But cannot stife my hearts desire;
| strive to read, but anon the book
Fades far away, and rise and look
Into the night and out on the plain
Where the mad storm shrieks as it scatters the
rain.
Restlessly taking the book once more,
try to beguile my thoughts with its lore,
But straight her face who is dead doth arise
And feel the spell of her haunting eyes;
hear her call through the binding night,
Pleading to come to the warmth and light,
And rush to the easement, but once again
There is naught save the storm and the ceaseless
rain.
o, pitiless fate, how it beats and moansl
She is dead-I know-but her face-her tones
She is there-she is somewhere out in the storm.
How can stay where tits light and warmi
If she could only beckon me there,
If she could only whisper me where
But strain far out at the window pane
And hear but the wind and the sobbing rain.
l will come to you-yes, though the beldam night
Dispute the way with shapes of alright
Down to your tomb in the icy mold
l will bring you the warmth my heart doth bold.
Never again when the wild storms beat
Shall you wander in search of light and heat,
Nor ever forever down under the void
Shall your night be dark or your grave be cold.
Charles Henry Phelps in Home journal.

Herodotus tells OF adwarfish black peo-
pie on the banks of the Niger. His de-
scription of the land still holds good; but,
instead Of negroes, Berbers and Tuareg in
habit those regions. At the present time
the most northern place in West Africa
which is inhabited by dwarfs is Tenda
MAZE, where they were met with by Mol
lien in 1918.
Pliny mentions, besides the dwarfs on
the sources of the Nile, others living in
what is now southeastern Belutchistan,
where the Brahui, a people of Dravida
lineage, are found. Ktesias speaks of
pygmies who inhabited central India.
Mr.. Rousselet found in that region the
Idwarfish Bandra Lok, who live in the
| Vindhias mountains.
De Quatrefages considers all Asiatic
dwarfish tribes as one group, which he
calls Negrito, while the African ones are
called Negrilla. His researches lead him
to the conclusion that the traces of this
race are found from India to the eastern
extremity of New Guinea, and from
Ceylon throughout India, Farther India,
the Philippines, to Japan. In most re-
gions they are mixed with other races.
| He considers the Dravida one of the most
characteristic results of this mixture. 1t
is only on the Andaman Islands and
few other isolated points that the pure
race is still in existence. The author
shows that individuals of Negrito type
occur among the Pariahs of India, and
that isolated communities in many parts
of southeastern Asia have retained the
anthropological character of this dwarfsh
race.
De Quatrefages considers the Negrito
of all these widely separated regions one
race, which originated in southern Asia.
When the yellow race migrated south
